The lunar shadow will enter from the northwest, cross Asturias and Castile, reach the Mediterranean and end in the Balearic Islands shortly before sunset. Coinciding with the sunset, totality will occur when the Sun is grazing the western horizon, around 8:30 pm, and will last about two minutes.    <strong>We recommend the Cantabrian coast and its clear horizon to position ourselves with views towards the West as Cape Pe\u00f1a, Oviedo.<\/strong>  The spectacle promises to be ephemeral but intense over the sea with seabirds reacting remarkably to these changes in luminosity. Asturias is very popular and pleasant during the summer, more so in 2026. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-533x800.jpg\" alt=\"Infographics Iberian Trio\" class=\"wp-image-43539 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-533x800.jpg\" alt=\"Infographics Iberian Trio\" class=\"wp-image-43539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-253x380.jpg 253w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> <strong>August 2, 2027: total eclipse in the morning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost a year later, on August 2, 2027, the next eclipse will be visible, this time in the southern peninsular and North Africa, where it will reach its maximum visibility. The totality band will cross the Strait of Gibraltar and the Alboran Sea around 10:45 am, with a total phase that will reach about five minutes. The observing conditions will be ideal since the event will be observed at noon in the Andalusian sky, always clear during the summer. In fact, it is advisable to be cautious with the prevailing heat and brightness in our region. We will look for an observation point as close as possible to the Strait of Gibraltar. A challenge? To take the sea for the observation of cetaceans and the eclipse !      <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"Seabirds over the sea with three eclipses of the sun\" class=\"wp-image-43536 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"Seabirds over the sea with three eclipses of the sun\" class=\"wp-image-43536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN-380x380.jpg 380w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Trio-Iberico-imagen-creada-por-IA-BN.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>january 26, 2028: annular eclipse at sunset<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On this occasion, the Moon will not completely cover the solar disk, but will leave a &#8220;ring of fire&#8221; visible. The band of annularity will cross the peninsula from southwest to east, passing through Seville, Cordoba, Albacete and Valencia, at around 18:00 h. The phenomenon will last about seven minutes and, at the end of the day, visibility will depend on the state of the sky. We will go to Do\u00f1ana to combine the observation of wintering birds with the sunset over the Guadalquivir marshes.   <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:62px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Naturaleza-en-Andalucia-y-mas-alla_2025-09-10_page-001-618x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43562 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"618\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Naturaleza-en-Andalucia-y-mas-alla_2025-09-10_page-001-618x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Naturaleza-en-Andalucia-y-mas-alla_2025-09-10_page-001-618x800.jpg 618w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Naturaleza-en-Andalucia-y-mas-alla_2025-09-10_page-001-293x380.jpg 293w, https:\/\/g3-guides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Naturaleza-en-Andalucia-y-mas-alla_2025-09-10_page-001.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:62px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Once, not usually, the two &#8220;artistic&#8221; images have been created by AI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An unprecedented event in modern history is coming, known as the &#8220;Iberian Trio&#8221;, which will occur in Spain between 2026 and 2028.
